I remember my first impression of UCM – I came into the building and was greeted by the staff. The common room was filled with students speaking several languages while someone played guitar in the background – it felt like a scene from a movie.
I think the community is what makes UCM so special. You always feel like you are studying with a big family around you, ready to support you when you are in need, but also ready to share the most incredible experiences with you.
I have always found the student community at UCM to be very welcoming. Whether it’s having a chat with a student while I wait for some tea or asking for help in a course, everyone is approachable and friendly.
I never thought PBL could have such a positive impact on my motivation and willingness to invest more time into academia!
My first semester at UCM confirmed that I made the right choice.
The most valuable thing I’ve learned during UCM is that 'it isn’t always that deep'. Sometimes you need to let go of your extreme concernedness about certain things...
Joining UCM felt like joining a big family – I have never felt alone or bored.
It's for people who want to do more than one thing and want to be able to combine courses however they want
